Thanks to all for your warm words, prayers and best wishes for my surgery on Tuesday. It went really, really well. The surgeon was able to do a wedge (lung) using VATS (like laproscopy). I am feeling GOOD and I might be going home today -- if not, tomorrow. Yea!! I 'm looking forward to starting walking again but also have promised my loved ones I will take it easy and rest up - !! Thanks again for all the warm wishes. It makes a difference, as you know.
